We're closing down, we're closing down.
In Newhaven Town we're closing down.

There's Brighton to the left and there's Eastbourne to the right,
And in the Jolly Boatman someone's spoiling for a fight.
Can I convince myself everything will be alright, And then I frown, we're closing down

The ships that get the aggregate are sailing up the Ouse,
The bridge is up, the traffic's stopped and there's a mighty queue,
Now the French have closed the Beach there's not that much to do, They've closed it down, they've closed it down.

I wish someone would tow that boat away, Or break it up or something.
Shopping trollies in the silt.

I'm gonna put my wellies on so I take off my shoes,
Oh how the incinerator dominates the view,
I'm get some booze from Sainsbury's and seeds from B&Q, And then I'll frown. We're closing down.

Thank Christ for Lidls, Lidls, Lidls, Lidls

In and out the roundabout we're going into town.
I used to like the flea market until they closed it down.
No need to get the hump cause we're all handy for the dump, But when a skip comes..they close it down.

People only come to sail away, And make their way to Dieppe,
But they might just close it down.
